Falling faster past the broken lies,

I'm not aware, but time just flies

I'm sitting here flustered and uneasy,

Without you I feel broken and so measley

I sat at home and cried my eyes out today,

Theres nothing I can do to make you feel okay.


I've lost my way, nothing I can say,

Would make you change your mind

I'm alone, awake, a fake, just one mistake,

I can't take back.(2x)

To you


Intrusively ironic it must be,

Theres nothing I can do to make you see

I'm certanly outrageous and vindictive,

I can't forget, your loves addictive

This game I played I was the user,

Your the winner, I'm the loser.


I've lost my way, nothing I can say,

Would make you change your mind

I'm alone, awake, a fake, just one mistake,

I can't take back.(2x)

To you


Terifyingly teriffic it must seem,

Within my mind this will always deem

I knew this would never stay intact,

It was a matter of time that I lacked

You know the truth and I will suffer

What I did, I failed, and now your Tougher.


I've lost my way, nothing I can say,

Would make you change your mind

I'm alone, awake, a fake, just one mistake,

I can't take back.(2x)

No I can't take back,

To you

This is my first song that I ever put out for anyone to see. I'm shy and I hope the criticism is constructive :)

This was really good. I hope you keep writing (like if you stopped or something). No doubt, I can really relate to this, Almost a million times. I really liked it a lot.
